Robotics & Automation Engineer — bridging mechanical design,
computational intelligence, and digital manufacturing.

I build things that move, think, and make. From evolving soft robots and autonomous driving systems to bionic limbs and 3D-printed edible structures — I merge engineering rigor with creative problem-solving.

About Me

Engineering with
purpose and precision

I'm Adhiraj Londhe, a Mechanical Engineer with a Master's from Columbia University (Robotics & Control concentration). My work sits at the intersection of mechanical design, computational methods, and robotics — spanning from warehouse AMR/AGV deployment to evolutionary AI and digital fabrication.

I'm currently a Research Engineer at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Center for Smart Convergent Manufacturing Systems (CSCMS), where I support applied research, prototyping, and experimental validation — bridging academic research with real-world smart manufacturing solutions.

Previously, at Humro, I deployed and commissioned autonomous mobile robots in live warehouse environments — handling everything from SLAM mapping and network configuration to PID/MPC motion tuning. Before that, I researched autonomous driving algorithms at Columbia's DitecT Lab using CARLA simulation.

My academic projects have pushed me from 3D food printing to bioinspired robot locomotion, from MEMS sensor characterization to topology optimization using MATLAB. I love building things that are both technically rigorous and genuinely surprising.
